The President of the United States is publicly calling for the political prosecution of his political opponents, urging the death penalty because they urged soldiers to uphold the rule of law.
This should be front page news everywhere. It is not, which tells much about how we got to this point.

Teenage Fanclub, with Bandwagonesque (1991). I still remember seeing the album in the local record store, but that was 34 years ago today. Also, the album didn't feel like a sellout, probably their best. #MusicSky

Around the world there is no shortage of drama in the final games of the WC qualifiers, but Troy Parrott's late winner in the game against Hungary is the stuff of legends. Hats off, Ireland, that was a stunning comeback.

Troy Parrott. Echos of Robbie Keane's goal against Germany in 2002. What a moment. #COYBIG 🇮🇪

On November 15, 1988, the Cowboy Junkies came out with the album The Trinity Session. Nice covers of songs from Lou Reed and Hank Williams. #MusicSky

Watch this and suddenly your own problems won’t feel so heavy. The good news: people stepped up and raised about $246 k+ on GoFundMe to help this woman and her baby.
There really are good people out there.

The underwater seismometer network is so great, as evidenced from yesterday's EQ off-Tohoku.

Neil Young is turning 80 today (3 days younger than my dad). It seems appropriate to play an album from the year that I was born. After the Goldrush (1970) #MusicSky

American politics makes a lot more sense when you realize that the GOP is afraid of pissing off the GOP base, and the Dems are afraid of pissing off the GOP base, but neither party is afraid of pissing off the Dem base.

Today is the fifty-year anniversary of Horses, the debut album of Patti Smith. It was amazing to read in "Just Kids" how the early 1970s led to her music career, and a terrific album. #MusicSky

Tonight’s Senate vote on the federal government shutdown should have been a time for strength.
Instead we saw capitulation and a betrayal of working Americans.
The American people need more from their leaders.
